Macy Gray's unique, sandpapery voice--something of a cross between Erykah Badu and Eartha Kitt--and her mixing of vintage soul values with a more contemporary sound, earned her a 2001 Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance (for the song "I Try"). LIVE IN LAS VEGAS captures Gray performing three years later, on November 18, 2004 at the Vegas venue House of Blues.
